Description
The Integrated Core Solution (ICS) is the best way to make your design much more powerful. The ICS eFPGA core provides all features to be easily integrated into the datapath of your processor. We propose our services to help you to integrate this core into your design.
The MENTA ICS eFPGA core is tightly coupled with the processor or microcontroller which facilitates programming thanks to a full software (C/C++) design flow.
Some integrations were already carried out with well known processors (see eFPGA-augmented CPUs page).
Features
The features include:
- Soft, Hard and Firm IP Cores available for integration into FPGAs and ASICs.
- Fully synthesizable, technology independent soft cores (uses standard cells).
- Multi-context capability which allows dynamic switching of configuration in a single clock cycle.
- Basic Element modularity from function generators (LUT) to hard module (adder, multiplier, memory, etc.).
- API to easily configure and exploit the eFPGA core with the processor.
- Menta tools: Profiling, Debug, Place & Route, Simulation.
